WHAT IS ACNE?Acne is a common skin condition that happens when hair follicles under the skin become clogged. This is often the result of a buildup of dead skin and oil clogging the pores. The result is an outbreak of pimples.5

WHAT ARE THE BIGGEST CAUSES OF ACNE?Common causes are too much oil in the skin’s pores, a buildup of dead skin cells in the pore, or bacteria in the pores. Age, hormonal issues or changes, family history, and even some medications can also be the cause of acne issues.6

ACNE TREATMENT REVIEWS“Natasha was very detailed in explaining what she was doing and how to care for my skin moving forward. She was not pushy at all.”“Natasha helps me schedule specic treatments to maximize my skin’s health. If I have problem areas, she addresses those areas and makes my skin glow! My face always looks great when I leave! My skin looks and feels healthy and fresh after my treatments.”“Natasha is highly skilled, very personable, and answers any questions I ask. I enjoy coming in and being warmly greeted by Kim, who is so sweet and accommodating! [Single best thing is...] My skin felt silky, smooth!”“Natasha listens when I tell her what’s going on with my skin. I’m ve months postpartum, and my skin is “not acting like its normal self.” (Thanks, hormones.) Natasha has excellent recommendations and is making my skin feel healthy and “normal” again. I’m so thankful for her skincare knowledge and her ability to listen to and acknowledge my concerns. She shows genuine interest in doing what’s best for me and my skin, and it shows in the way my skin looks and feels. She recommends the right products and never tries to push something that wouldn’t be benecial. She is the best esthetician I’ve encountered, and my skin and I are so happy we met her!”11
